SINGAPORE: April 23, 2025, will go down as one of the most dramatic nomination days in recent memory, with both the PAP and the WP unveiling unexpected last-minute moves.

Leading up to the day, the PAP had introduced its slates in most constituencies, save for Marine Parade-Braddell Heights, East Coast and Punggol GRCs, while the WP had unveiled 14 political hopefuls, declining to say where most of them would be fielded and even which constituencies it would contest.
